SPRING EXHIBITION

Each spring, Socrates presents a curated and thematically based exhibition, featuring works by approximately 15-20 established and emerging artists. Artists are solicited by individual invitation, as well as chosen via the Park's annual open application process, through which the exhibition topics are presented. The theme is intentionally painted in broad strokes, to allow the strongest artist proposals to shape the final direction of the show. While some of the works are exhibited on loan, the majority of the works are commissioned specifically for the show.
